Hamdok was arrested and detained during Monday’s military coup.
The US State Department in a statement said Blinken welcomed Hamdok’s release and reiterated his call to the Sudanese armed forces to free all the civilian leaders rounded up in the last 24 hours.
It was gathered that protests against the seizure of power by the military continued into the night, with crowds in the capital Khartoum marching and blocking main roads.
Earlier, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan sought to justify the coup by accusing political groups of inciting civilians against the security forces.
In another development, the Head of the Electoral Commission in the Democratic Republic of Congo Denis Kadima has been sworn-in amid controversy over his nomination. Kadima takes over as President of the Independent National Electoral Commission, CENI with the heavy task of organising the next elections by 2023. His appointment has not been a unanimous decision, with religious groups, who are supposed to nominate CENI members by consensus, disagreeing.

Sudan's Civilian Leaders Arrested Amid Coup Reports - Liberty TV/Radio - News - Voice For All! Vision For Alll!

October 25, 2021
Prime Minister Abdallah Hamdok is among those reported to have been put under house arrest by unidentified soldiers.
Military and civilian leaders have been at odds since long-time ruler Omar al-Bashir was overthrown two years ago and the transitional government set up. Video footage from the North African nation’s capital showed protesters manning lit barricades and entering the area near the military’s headquarters. There are some reports of gunfire but these have not been confirmed.
A statement from the information ministry said the detentions were carried out by “joint military forces” and those arrested were being held in “an unidentified location”.
The ministry said soldiers had stormed the HQ of the state broadcaster, in Omdurman, and detained staff there.
It also said Hamdok was being pressed to support a coup but was refusing to do so and he urged people to continue with peaceful protests to “defend the revolution”.
The UK’s special envoy for Sudan and South Sudan, Robert Fairweather, tweeted those military arrests of civilian leaders would be “a betrayal of the revolution, the transition and the Sudanese people”.

Military leader, Lieutenant General, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, in an issued statement, named Khalid Hassan Muhyi al-Din as the new General Director of Police.
There was no reason given for the sacking, but Burhan had earlier dismissed, in similar decrees, the Governor of the Central Bank and two Foreign Ministry diplomats.
The Police have been inactive in conflict-hit areas, including the capital, Khartoum, since the fighting erupted on 15 April;  as a result, acts of disorder, including looting and robbery, have been widely reported in these areas.
Fighting between Sudan’s rival military factions appears to have no end in sight, despite much-touted truce talks brokered by the US and Saudi Arabia.

Former Super Eagles defender, Sam Sodje has raised the alarm over the influx of foreign coaches to the national team’s coaching crew.
He is bothered that the large number of foreign coaches working with Coach Gernot Rohr is ridiculing Nigerian coaches, adding that it is denying trained and qualified local coaches the opportunity to get the necessary experience.
Sodje said he is worried that the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF keeps spending money on foreign coaches without getting the desired results, stressing that the Eagles posted the worst result in its World Cup history in 2018.
Nigeria, he said, was kicked out of the competition in the group stage despite the presence of foreign coaches on its bench.
On the chances of the Super Eagles in this year’s Nations Cup, the former Leeds United of England player said Nigeria would only excel in Egypt if the coach worked hard to build a formidable team.

Super Falcons: Oshoala nets brace in Atletico Femenino rout - Liberty TV/Radio - News - Voice For All! Vision For Alll!
Mohammed Abdulhammed
September 23, 2019
Super Falcons forward Asisat Oshoala opened her 2019/2020 Liga Iberdrola season account with a brace against defending champions Atletico Madrid Femenino on Saturday evening.
Oshoala was involved in four of the six goals scored as Barcelona Femeni defeated the reigning champions 6-1 at the Johan Cruyff Stadium to go top of the league with 7 points and +13 goals difference after just three games.
Having been named among the starting XI for this top of the table clash, Oshoala was a handful for the Atletico defence causing all sorts of trouble. But that wasn’t until the Catalan side got into their groove.
The Champions drew first blood in the 2nd minute but their lead only lasted a few minutes as Barcelona Femeni soon settled into the encounter as Oshoala won a penalty which was converted by Jenni Hermoso to level the score.
Oshoala then struck the woodwork from two yards out but Marion a Caldentey was on hand to drive in the rebound and give the home team the lead.
Leila Ouahabi then got the third before Oshoala added a fourth with an expertly taken finish just before half time.
The Super Falcons forward left off from where she ended the first half adding a fifth goal after a blistering run to add more misery to the champions’ woes.
She however couldn’t get her hat trick to cap off a brilliant performance at the Johan Cruyff Stadium as she was withdrawn in the 73rd minute ahead of Wednesday’s UEFA Women’s Champions League play-off with Juventus in Spain.
Also in Spain, after her dream debut in which CD Tacon won 3-0, Super Falcons defender Osinachi Ohale was once again in action for her side. This time, they lost 5-1 to EDF Logrono as Asslani’s 17th minute opener was cancelled out two minutes later.
Tacon conceded four more goals as they recorded yet another heavy loss following matchday one’s 9-1 drubbing by Oshoala’s Barcelona Femeni.
In Sweden, Super Falcons midfield duo of Halimatu Ayinde played the entire duration of the game while Ngozi Okobi was withdrawn in the 84th minute as Eskilstuna United picked all three points at home against Vittsjö.
Just like Oshoala, Chinaza Uchendu was also on target for SC Braga as she inspired her side to a 5-1 win over Maritmo to make it three points in two games and her second goal in as many games this season.
The Chinese Women’s League came to an end with Francisca Ordega and Onome Ebi both registering their names on the score sheet in the final game of the season.
Ordega’s Shanghai Shengli finished second on the log while Onome Ebi and Chiwendu Ihezuo’s Henan Huishang both finished the season in seventh place.
Ordega and Ihezuo finish joint third on the CWSL goalscorers chart with 7 goals each.

The Centre for Democracy and Development, CDD has condemnedattacks on ad hoc staff, media, observers and other electoral participants during the supplementary polls.
It said the attacks marred the polls.
The centre’s Director, MS Idayat Hassan who was representedby an analyst of CDD, Jideofor Adibe in Abuja, said that the group’sobservers noted incidents of violence and disruption of voting process.
Hassan said the cases were reported in Kano, Sokoto,Benue and Bauchi states where supplementary governorship and state houses ofassembly elections held.
She added that this was because Gama ward in NasarawaLGA in Kano State was strategic to winning the supplementary electionsby either of the two leading candidates.
Hassan said that in Sokoto, particularly in BodingaLGA, Bodinga ward, a dispute which eventually disrupted the election, eruptedbetween the agents of the two leading parties.
She said it was disrupted over attempts by a partyagent to assist voters in voting.
She said that evidence suggested that the deliberatedeployment of political thuggery during electionsseemed to have become the norm in Nigeria.
She said that the trend was extremely disturbing, andit was imperative to safeguard Nigeria’s  democracy by holding theperpetrators accountable.
Hassan said that the way thuggery was instrumentalisedin the elections queried the essence of the massive deployment of securityagents to guard the polls, especially when brigandage ruled.
She said in  several instances, the securityagents were reported to have turned a blind eye to the act of brigandageperpetrated by the political thugs.
She said that the electoral cycle witnessed so muchintimidation, harassment and attack on voters, journalists, observers and INECofficials.
“This unfortunate development, however, took anunprecedented turn in the Kano supplementary elections where party agents andthugs intimidated and attacked voters and observers in the course of exercisingtheir franchise or monitoring the process.’’
Hassan said there was a clear case of where partyagents and thugs coerced and intimidated voters to vote for their candidates.
She said that the high level of intolerance againstpoll monitors was not limited to observers.
She said that in spite of several attempts to entrenchpeacefully electoral democracy in Nigeria, elections have been marred byupsurge of violence.
She said that the level of impunity at which thisgruesome act was being prosecuted by hoodlums at the ballot box and theinability of security agents to respond adequately and hold perpetratorsaccountable were sources of concern.
Hassan said that incidences of underage voting andvote buying were also recorded where votes were sold for N10,000 and N15,000.
She said there was need to emphasise that the act ofvote buying was an offence punishable under the laws and those involved in theact should be arrested and prosecuted according to law.
This, she said, would discourage the increasing rateof the practice (NAN)

for State High Courts, Sharia Court of Appeal, and Customary Court of
Appeal.

May 26, 2023
The Apex Court on Friday held that the PDP’s suit praying disqualification of Tinubu and Shettima was lacking in merit, and dismissed it.
Justice Adamu Jauro, who delivered the lead verdict, placed a fine of two million on PDP for poke-nosing into the internal affairs of the All-Progressives Congress, APC, in the conduct of its primary elections and nomination of its candidates.
The Judge also agreed with Tinubu’s lawyer, Prince Lateef Fagbemi, SAN, that PDP acted as busy-body and meddlesome interloper in the ways and manners it dabbled into APC’s affairs unjustly.
The Apex Court held that, apart from the fact that PDP lacked requisite jurisdiction to institute the suit, the party also failed to provide scintilla of evidence that Shettima engaged in double nomination.
